Chandler was ordained Sunday night. He is officially a member of the clergy. Totally legit. And it could not have occurred at a more perfect time, following our annual Great Commission Celebration at church.
Trent, who is also on staff at our church, was able to give Chandler his "charge" which was so, so neat and made the night more special. But my absolute favorite part of the evening was while we were standing at the front of the church and our church family came by to encourage Chandler and myself. I have never felt so genuinely loved by my brothers and sisters in Christ. A few of our students expressed how much they would miss us when we leave for the mission field and our Life Group teachers, David and Carol Parks, encouraged us and loved on us. They will never know just how much Chandler and I love and respect them.
We feel blessed by the spiritual family that is there to support, encourage, and pray for us. It means the world.
